Wulfenite (ex Kay Robertson Collection)

Item Description

This is a wonderful Wulfenite specimen from this historic locality. It features a rich orange color, sharp, lustrous, thick tabular crystals measuring 8 mm sitting on a thin layer of oxidized matrix. Virtually every crystal is undamaged, and the piece looks wonderful up close. Wonderful color for the material, and these are probably some thickest Wulfenite crystals from any world locality. Valued at $700. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#5764). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
